Jeruscha Origin and Meaning

The name Jeruscha is a girl's name.

Jeruscha is a feminine name of Hebrew origin, a variant spelling of Jerusha, which appears in the Bible as the wife of King Uzziah and means 'possession' or 'inheritance.' This uncommon spelling with the added 'c' gives the traditional name a distinctive touch while maintaining its biblical roots. Though rare in contemporary usage, Jeruscha carries the weight of ancient history and religious significance. The name has seen occasional use in Christian and Jewish communities, particularly among families with strong religious ties. While never reaching widespread popularity, Jeruscha appeals to parents seeking names with biblical heritage and distinctive spelling. Its melodious three-syllable pronunciation creates a rhythmic, flowing name that combines religious heritage with a touch of uniqueness.
